DC Comics Solicitations for January 2011

BRIGHTEST DAY #17-18
BATMAN #706
RED ROBIN #19
BIRDS OF PREY #8
SUPERMAN #707
SUPERGIRL #60
WONDER WOMAN #607
GREEN LANTERN #62
THE FLASH #10
GREEN ARROW #8
LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES #
TEEN TITANS #91
ZATANNA #9

Possibly:
WONDER GIRL #1- We'll see how I enjoy Krul's Teen Titans up until January

Wow.. very scaled down DC list from me compared to normal. And I don't even know if all of those issues will get picked up.

Supergirl may go with this new creative team to give me space to follow them to their next book.

Batman may be dropped altogether. So far Red Robin is really the only Bat-book I'm enjoying anymore.

Teen Titans will still be on trial seeing as it's the 3rd or 4th issue on Krul/Scott's run.

And of note.. the Hero/Logo cover thing.. I really like it and think it fits a lot of the books, but I scroll through and it looks.. annoying? simple? for the entire month. I get they want consistency, and they've gotten it. But I kind of would've liked to see an action shot before I reached the end of the DCU books. It's cool to see simple covers like we often want, but something about ALL of them just kind of.. lost my interest at some point. I don't know how to explain it really.

I wasn't a big fan of the covers. To me they would fit much better as variants, maybe 50/50 variants. As regular covers they don't do much for me. They're interesting but I'd rather have full action shots like normal.

I didn't know you'd been picking up Zatanna. Have you been on it since the beginning with Roux on art, or were you picking it up from when Chiang started?


And yea I agree, 50/50 covers would've been much more preferrable. I like these for some characters, like the bigger names, or if it's a decent team shot, but not everything.

Ah ok. I didn't think you'd been on it but thought I'd double check. Hope you'll enjoy it long enough to stay!
